“Are you ready enough?”

What a classic question we often ask ourselves. Doubts that tell us we might not be ready for something. Doubts that stop us from moving forward and taking chances. How much can we lose before we are actually ready enough?

After all these years turning into a grown woman, I accept the fact that we can never be ready if we don’t make experience. “Ready enough?“ has officially became an excuse for myself to procrastinate and I hated it. I banned it. I’ve cut off people who tells me that I am not ready, who underestimates me, who is unsupportive yet discouraging. Who needs all these negativity when I am trying to be someone greater?

I’ve learnt how to put myself into uncomfortable situation to learn things. I can’t be ready if I keep turning opportunities down just because I think I wasn’t ready enough. In fact, these experiences makes me a greater person. They make me somebody I never thought that I can become one. I am happier than ever.

I know that we can never know how ready we are if we don’t go for it. It might turn out bad, it might turn out unexpected. They gave me directions to make my next decision. They gave me courage to become someone who is ready for anything. These are all great experiences and stories to tell. I definitely want to be someone who has stories to tell.

Last week I had an opportunity to organize a private styling session
with Burberry at their store in Pavilion. I’ve talked about 2018
trends and how I convey these trends into my instagram..

My personal style evolves every year, but I would say I am more towards
the casual chic style. I love wearing tee shirts a lot, and love pairing them with different items to create different looks. This year, I
will be exploring a lot with prints and colors, which is also why I
think Burberry going is one of the key brands of 2018.

I am looking at Burberry’s classic print comeback on their current and
upcoming collections. Focusing on prints on prints, colors on prints. Hence, my bag
selection will be more simple and subtle, like the Square Satchel that
I’ve been carrying around. Brought it to Spain, trust me, it goes well with all kinds of
style. Also, good enough to fit all the junks that I bring while traveling. Personally love the mini satchels they have too

My boyfriend and I had a layover in Dubai for 5 days before our trip to Europe, and it was the best decision we ever made! ( Courtesy to team Ykone & Dubai tourism for making our Dubai happen. ) So what are the must-dos in Dubai? Here’s my top five must-dos list.

Hop on a Seaplane.

One of the best seaplane experience I ever had. A 45 minutes ride above Dubai’s sky, we get to see all Dubai landmarks, including Dubai’s old town, Burj Khalifa, Palm Jumeriah Burj Al Arab. If you have never taken a seaplane before, it’s nothing scary or dangerous, suitable for all age including infants. Me and my boyfriend voted this experience the best way to see the whole Dubai. Unless you wanted to do sky diving, I wanted to but he is afraid of heights, so this is good enough to fulfil our Dubai skyline dreams. Anyway, The Seawings Seaplane has a few options for seaplane tours and flight times are pretty flexible, but do book them earlier because the seats are hot!Check it out at :https://seawings.ae/ultimate-tour-of-dubai-seawings-silver-seaplane-tour

Not your typical desert safari tour.

We went to two different desert safari experiences with Platinum Heritage.

Platinum Collection - Conservation Drive.A more private and luxurious way to discover the desert safari. We cruised in a Range Rover and had our breakfast at Al Mahal Desert Resort. I personally advice to pick the earliest time to depart so you get the best sunlight for photos. We departed at 7am and it's good enough. Also if you’re looking for a private and flexible desert safari tour, where you get to ask your tour guide to stop anywhere any moment, this is it.

Herritage Collection - Herritage Desert Safari Dubai.One of the coolest way to visit the desert safari. Imagine cruising in a vintage 1950’s Land Rover, watching the sunset middle of the desert, and having Emirati dinner under the stars at a private Royal desert retreat. We had so much fun and we both agreed that this is the must go desert safari tour. Fyi, this desert safari tour is ranked top1 in TripAdvisor. The only advice I will have for this tour is to bring a jacket at night because the temperature drops really fast after the sunsets.

There’s two fine restaurants that we went around Dubai’s financial district (DIFC).Mint Leaf of London - An Indian fine cuisine with a view overlooking the Burj Khalifa. We both are huge fan of Indian food, we didn’t expect this had become one of the best Indian food experience.

Zuma -We asked our uber driver to recommend us something and he brought us to Zuma, a Japanese fusion restaurant. Imagine sex and the city vibes, Zuma is very similar to NOBU. Food was really good, but I personally think the chef tasting menu that we ordered was a little too much, a la carte to share will be great enough. We made our bookings quite last minute, glad that they got us a table at the lounge area.

Chill on a hipster beach.

La Mer is Dubai’s newest beachfront district that just opened in November. I was pretty impressed with the hipster vibes going on with the strands of shops and cafes, filled with street arts and art pieces. Han Pin did his research on SALT, which happen to be one of the most famous soft serve & burger place in Dubai that started off from a caravan. Now they have an actual cafe in La Mer and trust me, their stuff are really yummy. La Mer is a huge project, heard that there will be more stuff coming in line.

Didn’t expect to have my first jet ski experience in Dubai. We cruised from the marina towards the best view of Burj Al Arab. It was quite a thrill but I wish I get to do it again by myself the next time. Our instructor was really patient and nice, also good in taking pictures too

I'm so happy that I make it to Paris this year, this time round with OMEGA to celebrate the launch of OMEGA "Her Time" Exhibition. Lucky me. I was so so so happy and excited because it was PFW and literally all my fav instagrammers/bloggers around the world were in Paris.

It was a totally different experience to travel to Paris during fashion week. It's very interesting to actually see how people dress up for fashion week, some were really good, and some were just extra lol. Rue Saint-Honoré stretch were filled with fashionable people all over the world. Colette was like the pit stop. Everyone was like "got to make the last visit before it shuts down in dec."

I am very grateful to have OMEGA to host my very first PFW experience. I got to stay at one of the best hotels, Mandarin Oriental ( located right inside Rue Saint-Honoré, where all the shopping is. ), had dinner on a yacht for welcome dinner that went around Paris, walked on a mini red carpet, got 84990102 photographs taking pictures of me on the photowall ( big thank you to Louis Vuitton for dressing me top to toe ). Thinking about it makes me feel like it was a dream.

Here's a few fun facts about OMEGA Women and Timepieces :

1. In early days, OMEGA produces "secret jewerly watches" where they make timepieces looked like jewerly with hidden watch, to accommodate some circle who considers woman rude to look at her wrist watch ( they think it's a sign of boredom. )

2. Cindy Crawford is the first OMEGA women ambassador and she is still since 1995. 22 Years!
